Jeep Destination Double vs Graco Ready2Grow 2.0
Same $300, different shape, and both stand when folded. The Jeep Destination Double is a side-by-side at 28.66 lb that folds to 30 x 29.5 x 13.4 inches; the Graco Ready2Grow 2.0 is a tandem at 32 lb that is 25.6 inches wide open and has no published folded size. Each takes 50 lb per child. The Jeep's pitch is two children who both need a reclining seat. The Graco's is a newborn plus a toddler: it accepts two Graco infant car seats at once, SnugRide natively, though only the front seat reclines, in two positions, and its platform carries an older child. The Jeep page gives no car seat or newborn information. A baby in a car seat is the deciding case, since only the Graco handles it. For two toddlers who both nap, the side-by-side Jeep is 3.3 lb lighter and has equal seats. If you must lift it into a car alone, check that 28.66 lb first.
Only Jeep publishes a folded size for its model here; Graco gives none for the Graco Ready2Grow 2.0, so only one side gets a carry-on verdict. The Jeep Destination Double is 3.34 lb lighter by its maker's figure (28.66 lb to 32 lb).
